After being called out for passing off sketches as if they were original designs, Kanye West finds himself in the middle of another plagiarism fiasco. A popular IG account known for outing plagiarism in fashion called @diet_prada put Ye out for another alleged stolen concept. This time, however, it was promo and rollout.

The claim is Kanye and the YEEZY company stole a concept for the latest lookbook from a 2015 series of photos done by photographer Rita Minissi. While the photos side-by-side do share a striking resemblance, Ye can argue that Minissi's work was just a source of inspiration but then again, that may not be enough of an explanation.
